    "I am an active parent at this school and have 2 children that attend. I am surprised to see the recent reviews that there is a bullying problem at Spady. I am very impressed with the Conscious Discipline used in the classrooms. Respect and communication are emphasized in the classrooms repeatedly. Every school will get children with special emotional and behavioral needs. A school can't just "kick them out" they have to have a plan in place and work with the family. I agree with statements about the aftercare program...never been impressed with it but now they have a PhysIQ program after school where kids can take zumba, karate, dance, etc and it's great! GO PTA! Parents, administrators and staff all are involved and caring. The school atmosphere really can't be beat. Being a Montessori program, your child has the opportunity to go above and beyond in academics. My children are so far advanced then their peers who attend other schools. They have learned from the children the grade level above them so that when they enter that grade they are more than ready. Come visit and see for yourself!!!"

    "I had heard so many great things about S.D. Spady before entering my fist grade son. But as the year progresses I notice that there seem to be a lack of caring? The amount of children without manners seems to be a big problem, and it is not addressed at all. I also noticed that the aftercare program is horrendous! The kids are bullied with no seeming consequence. The aftercare teachers are too busy texting on their phones to even notice what the kids are doing. Then when they do notice strict punishment and referrals are given out like candy."

    "Academically, this school is fine. Our 5th grader is gifted and has been able to accelerate his learning in the Montessori environment. There is a real problem, however, with the lack of control and there seems to be a lot of lip service given to not tolerating bullying. Kids with known problems are consistently allowed to get away with things simply because they have a 504 plan. My 4th grade daughter was teased mercilessly to the point where she hated going to school. She will NOT be going to Spady next year and neither will our soon to be 6th grader. We've been told by someone that used to substitute in the school that it has seriously gone downhill in the past 2 years."

    "This is my first year at the school and it is excellent. My kids were enrolled at another neighborhood school that had a great rating, but within two weeks of joining the school it was clear they were lacking. Academics is only one part of school, and Spady gets that! No child learns every subject at the same pace. They don't all fit into a nice box. Why should you teach them as if they do? Spady gets that. My kids love the school and my 3rd child will be entering the pre-K program in the fall. We're thrilled and recommend the school without reservation. Imagine? Your child has the same teacher for several years...and you won't waste the first few months of school while the teacher gets to know your child and you and your child get to know the teacher. The alone is amazing."
